Quote by Arthur C. Clarke: 'The only way to discover limits is to go beyond them to the impossible

The only way to discover the limits of the possible meaning: I love these quotes that talk about what’s possible and impossible. You’ll meet a lot of realists in the world who’ll say that something you’re after is not possible. They may be right, but we have to remember that they’re limited by their own experiences.
